I'm honored to have been featured in the Cyprus Computer Society’s “CCS Women” series, which highlights the journeys and contributions of women in technology across Cyprus. In my interview, I had the opportunity to share insights into my career path, the challenges I've encountered, and the motivations that drive my work in the tech industry.​
This initiative by CCS spotlights the diverse experiences of women in tech and to inspire the next generation. Being part of this series allowed me to reflect on my own journey and the importance of representation and mentorship in our field.​
You can read the full interview here:
